spicing things up a bit!

I was told today that I need to spice up my blog.... so you'll have to tune in Monday for all the exciting happenings of the weekend!

As for today, I had a meeting this morning, and one this evening. In between was a really nice retirement party for a dear friend of 20 years! Wish we could take another trip to Europe together soon! Guess I'd better get busier making more money! :)

For now, a couple more projects before I hit the pillow!

more to do, but too sleepy....

It's been a busy day. I have lots more to do, but it will have to wait until tomorrow afternoon.
We have an appt/class in the morning and a retirement party in the early afternoon.

Then two more meetings in the late afternoon and evening.

Now, off to bed.

Blessings,

computer locked up...

Didn't blog on Monday because about the time I was going to, which was really very early Tuesday morning, my computer decided it was tired and locked up.
I was too tired to wait for it to restart..... so I went to bed.

Here it is very early Wednesday morning.... Where did Tuesday go? We had a meeting at 8:30 where we presented our Sensible Parenting business. The presentation went very well. Several people came up to me afterward to comment that they had learned something. Hopefully they will refer students to us, or possibly decide to be students themselves!

Saw a friend I hadn't seen in a long time... about 6 years. We have decided to get together more often! Said goodbye to another friend who is moving away on Sunday. :(

Had a good parenting class and now am ready to go to bed.

Another long day Wednesday. Meeting at 8:30, lunch class at 11:30, Mom-sitting in the evening. Time to do her nails again while Sis goes to teach a class.

May not get around to posting on Wednesday evening, since I'll get home pretty late.

Blessings,

too tired

I was too tired to blog on Saturday, and I've actually missed Sunday, since it's Monday morning now.

Sunday was a good day for us, but very strange for some others. Gave blood before church, then one of my friends who gave blood passed out during the last hymn. They took her to the hospital. She was there for several hours but is ok and went home. Got dehydrated. So, if you are going to give blood, please remember to eat a good meal and drink LOTS of water the day before and the day of.

After church we headed out on a photo expedition. Found a few interesting things to photograph, but not what I was looking for. Some days are like that. There was a terrible accident in Circleville. We said a prayer as the ambulance and fire truck went by. We went back by about a half hour later and it was all gone. Two police cars were just leaving, and the really bad smashed car was gone. You couldn't even tell there had been an accident. From the looks of the car as we went by the first time, if there was anyone in it, they must have been killed or very badly injured.

We ate in Taylor and headed home at sunset.

I've been on the computer catching up since we got home. Oh, and I have to go put clothes in the dryer before I go to bed.
Guess I'd better do that now.

I think I'll stay home tomorrow and get some things done since I still have 5 meetings and classes this week, and I still don't know how retirement is going to affect unemployment. I'm waiting for a call back from UI about that. Since I only need 5, I'm going to skip the two extra ones on Monday this week.

Off to the dryer and then bed.

Blessings,
Lori

the only explanation....

The only explanation I have for not posting last night is that I was really tired and completely forgot by the time I was finally ready to go to bed.
I can't even remember what I did yesterday, which actually now is the day before....

OH, I checked my calendar. Now I remember. I was in a record keeping class all day yesterday. I don't EVER want to have to do payroll. If we have to hire people, they will either be contract, or one of them will be someone to do payroll!

So, when I got home, I had work to do. I think I went to bed at around 1:00. Had a meeting early on Friday, but then home to prep for a meeting Saturday (today now) with a bride and her mom, to discuss the wedding in July.

I'm sleeping in in the morning, then eating my breakfast on the patio instead of gulping it down just before running out the door for a meeting, like most days.

It was going to be my only day off this month, but had to schedule the meeting. Then we are going to go out taking photos to use for backgrounds. That will be fun!

Off to bed now.
Blessings,
Lori

another day of fun stuff!

I had a meeting at 8:30, then lunch with some friends, then took my camera to the shop. It turned out to be the lens that needs repair, so they sent it off. Luckily, we have other cameras and lenses to shoot the wedding in July. That one may not be back in time.

I have a class all day tomorrow, so I'm off to Nappy's house soon.

Blessings,
Lori

had a great day!

Meeting at 8:30, then a lunch class/meeting at 11:00, then dinner group at 6:30.
Good things happened at all. Made some contacts, learned some things, was offered help promoting businesses.

Must hit the pillow soon. Another meeting at 8:30. Not such a busy day out tomorrow tho. I get to come home and do some catching up on things I haven't made time to get to this week yet.

Blessings,
